Description

This security bulletin contains information about 1 vulnerability.


1) Acceptance of extraneous untrusted data with trusted data (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-1642)

CWE-ID: CWE-349 - Acceptance of Extraneous Untrusted Data With Trusted Data

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:L/VA:N/SC:N/SI:H/SA:N/E:U/U:Green


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform spoofing attack.

The vulnerability exists due to incorrect handling of trusted and untrusted data when configured to proxy to upstream Transport Layer Security (TLS) servers. A remote unauthenticated attacker with an MITM position on the upstream server side can inject plain text data into the responses from an upstream proxied server and send them to clients.
